Cricket Coach


Supposedly some really terrible game. There are no links to professional reviews. There was previously a link to a forum thread, which of course isn't exactly a reliable source in proving this game to be notorious for poor quality. I'm sure this is the next worst thing since Big Rigs, but there needs to be proof. And who's to say they won't release a patch to fix issues? It has been out for less than a week.

 * Strong keep Its a sequel to Cricket Manager, a highly notable game. Just because the quality may not be good has nothing to do with it's reliability. As far as reviews go: it's a sim game. Those tend to have less reviews, and more website reviews like wargamer.com or it's equivalent for sports games.   &rArr;    SWAT Jester   [[Image:Flag_of_Iceland.svg|18px|]]  Ready    Aim    Fire!  15:43, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

 * Strong keep No harm being done here, shirley? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.17.114.71 (talk • contribs)
 * Comment - How on earth can a game be put on List of video games considered the worst ever 4 days after release is beyond me. I'm removing it from that list. - Hahnch  e  n 18:50, 3 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Strong keep look its so unfeasibly bad its actually brilliant and i cant see why "proof" or "professional reviews" is needed when clearly everyone who has played it so far agrees and the person who has raised this complaint clearly has never seen it cause they are too busy hunting round wiki for things he can try and get deleted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.107.11.107 (talk • contribs)


 * delete if no reviews can back this up wikipedia is not for random heresay. if someone can find a link to reviews that say it is a Notably bad game then i may change my vote El cid the hero 19:25, 3 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment For a wikipedia user you have terrible grammar and punctuation - especially if you want your opinion to be taken seriously. May I suggest to the powers-that-be that this vote and any further votes from El cid be stricken from the record as he's clearly too mentally naive to take part in grown up debates. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.178.202.158 (talk • contribs) Strike, personal attack. --kingboyk 02:56, 9 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment as you seem to be new here I will give you a few pointers on getting started. 1) You have only contributed twice on your IP address, and on the second occasion you only corrected your previous comment. Unless you create your own username, and increase your number of contributions to Wikipedia, many users will not consider your views to be of a high value. 2) Wikipedia is not a battle ground so please don’t insult other users who hold a different opinion to yours. 3)  This page has a lot of useful information about Wikipedia and reading it might aid you in becoming an editor.
 * Delete Quality or whether you like the game matter not a jot. It's newly released and defaults to non notable, unless some evidence is provided to the contrary. --kingboyk 02:34, 9 April 2006 (UTC)

 * Comment err....I'm confused. Can we get some comments for concensus?  T   K   E  06:14, 9 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. The article does not link to any independent sources, whether professional or not, that confirm that the game had any or all of the flaws described. If sources are added to the article, I may reconsider this vote. --Metropolitan90 16:08, 9 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment : The screenshot shows Ed Smith with 115 off 68 deliveries. I don't know how that could be anything other than  a bug. -- GWO
 * Delete unless properly sourced. Otherwise, it just looks like a hatchet job.  Reinstate if the software ever gets a proper release.  --- GWO
 * Delete unless rewritten with verifiable information from reliable sources. -- Saberwyn 12:00, 10 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete unless cleaned up with more information about notability and sources cited. The current page is not a lot more than an attack page. Stifle (talk) 23:28, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Cleanup and Keep. --Haham hanuka 08:18, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
